Easy trails with Ted. Wasn't that easy because he is a 14:50 5ker, but easier than the last run we did together. I am officially out of nuun and am freaking out. I went to two different running shops and neither carried it. I bought some cytomax and some elixer. After having nuun for so long, having sugar in my drink really makes it less thirst quenching. Luckily the elixer stuff is almost identical to the lemon lime flavor of nuun. It will keep me going until I can get to the REI 30 min away and stock up on the good stuff--nuun tri berry. The cytomax is good, but when I was really thirsty, I chugged a 24oz bottle of elixer and starting on the cytomax but when I got home I made another 24oz of elixer and drank all of that. I have decided that if I am in a situation in which calories are needed, I will do honey if its a race and bars or real food if it's an easy pace. |
